a Japanese poster reached the internets, and a closer look revealed all the villains that will participate in the game. most of these chars aren't officially confirmed yet by S-E which is why I wrote 'semi rumor'.

so not that dude from FF12? The game's story was so forgettable that I already forgot his name.

Vayne, and since his final form was super sweet looking (best final boss design ever... maybe!) so he better make the cut

Edit: SO is there a rule that I have to say BEATEN or can I choose to ignore the poster above me and pretend I was first. Well just so I don't get banned for not following some unknown rule.... BEATEN!!! Curse you Seiken and your speedy typing.

I hope the roster is bigger than this - just a single hero and a single villain from each game would be disappointing, more so if it doesn't include 12 or a few of the spinoffs (this game is about nutty fanservice already so I wouldn't mind some of the characters from Advent Children or Dirge of Cerberus).

The game isn't meant to cover up to FFXII, people. And it isn't a Super Smash Bros type game either, it's more focused on exaggerated moves and what seems to be one-on-one combat.

And I'm still incredibly disappointed by this roster. The entire series' representation is odd - why two games from each game? Do that many people care about having "Warrior of Light" instead of, say, multiple characters from other games? I don't like the one hero, one villain system :-\

Disappointed with Jecht, but to be honest I would've been disappointed with anything from FFX. Also sad at the lack of FFT, which would have been baaaaallin'.

In thinking back on this, I think that not only are the characters in that poster unclear, but it's also just a goddamn poster, people. This doesn't even qualify as a rumor, it's speculation based on early promo materials.
